The theoretical basis of this new exhibition project is inspired in the way of seeing and perceiving a culture, the eternal desire of the photographer. Despite the distance, the photographer looking for with tenacity their sources of inspiration and hence pursues new cultures, new landscapes and new beings. The images of this sample will lead to many corners of the large island, to receive the land, the skin and the taste of a different culture, near and far at the same time. Despite the diversity of the work sample is not intended to delve into the primitive value of the distance ("as far is good"), on the contrary, we enjoy visions and ways of working as diverse as the number of authors participating in the sample.
